Abstract
Soil Moisture is a critical component of the earth water cycle and very important for plant health and development. DroneSAR is a drone based synthetic aperture radar technology that can provide high resolution field level soil moisture measurement data that can be used for flood/drought monitoring and crop yield prediction. Currently, this technology is under algorithm development for soil moisture retrieval.
